S with 17 neutrons and 16 protons has a mass number of 33 amu
The mass number of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Since sulfur has 16 protons (its atomic number) and 19 neutrons, the mass number of a sulfur atom with 19 neutrons would be 16 + 19 = 35.
Sulfur is a non metal element. Mass number of it is 32.
41 = 25 + 16, the latter being the atomic number of sulfur.
The mass number is calculated by adding together the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. A sulfur atom typically has 16 protons, so if it contains 31 neutrons, the mass number would be 16 (protons) + 31 (neutrons) = 47.
Mass number of S = 32.1 Atomic number of S = 16 The most common isotope of sulfur is 32S (95.02%). Therefore there are 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons per atom of sulfur-32.
The mass number of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Since sulfur has 16 protons (its atomic number) and 19 neutrons, the mass number of a sulfur atom with 19 neutrons would be 16 + 19 = 35.
Sulfur is a non metal element. Mass number of it is 32.
Number of nucleons = number of protons + neutrons = 16 + 17 = 33 The mass number is thus 33 and the atom is denoted sulfur-33 or 33S.
41 = 25 + 16, the latter being the atomic number of sulfur.
The mass number is calculated by adding together the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. A sulfur atom typically has 16 protons, so if it contains 31 neutrons, the mass number would be 16 (protons) + 31 (neutrons) = 47.
The number of neutrons in an atom depends on the isotope. The most common sulfur isotope has 16. The average number of neutrons in an atom of sulfur is about 32.065.
Mass number of S = 32.1 Atomic number of S = 16 The most common isotope of sulfur is 32S (95.02%). Therefore there are 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons per atom of sulfur-32.
Sulphur is a non metallic element. Mass number of it is 32.
The number 33 in "3316S" represents the atomic number of sulfur, which is the number of protons in its nucleus. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass. In this case, the atomic mass is 16, so there are 16 - 33 = 16 neutrons in the nucleus.
Mass number is always the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons; in this instance, 34.
Well, if an atom has 16 protons, then it is Sulfur, which is a non metal. If it had 16 neutrons, then it would be another isotope of sulfur, which would make it Sulfur-32. Then, unless it has a charge, there would also be 16 electrons.
There are 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 16 electrons in a Sulfur atom. *note it's atomic number- this is the number of protons in an atom of an element. There must be the same number of electrons to balance the charge. The atomic weight minus the number of protons gives you the number of neutrons
